Duchamp: Look at the fotos Thomas Struth shows in the Kunsthaus Zürich. Look at “Tokamak Asdex Upgrade Periphery [or] Interior 2, Max Planck Institute in Garching” Images or “Stellarator Wendelstein 7-x (detail) at the Max Planck Institute Greifswald” Image . Struth made fotos of the Tokamak and of the Stellarator Wendelstein. What did he see? What did he experience? How could he see something without background information? Do we see this information in his images? Realometer: He affirms an aphorism of Brecht. Brecht said it does not make sense to make an image of the entry to a building of Krupp when you want to display the power of Krupp.
Jabès: We see the entanglement in which we are immersed.
